Plans

After failing in my first geohashing attempt two days ago near Devers, TX, this hash is a no brainer.

It is a definite for a Speed Racer achievement.

As to other designations, I began to think Picnic, Kite, Twister, and all manner of potential achievements. Then realized that being in the middle of a busy highway, not beside a busy highway, limits me a bit.

Potential achievements: - No Batteries - as I need no aids to reach this point, and could use my sextant for the final positioning. Rejected - I'll be going in daylight, and need at least one other celestial body to trinagulate my position. - GeoTrash - if there's trash nearby, consider it gone. - Drag-along - I've got three kids and a wife to choose from. Hmmm.

Of course, a target this easy will also be my first Land Geohash.
